NASCAR Sprint cup race today
- September 15, 2016
I knew when the bad luck stopped coming, we would start racking them off. "We were the fastest vehicle on the long run every time". "I just got into the left rear of him". Jeff Gordon is mostly retired and Tony Stewart is nearly out the door. Trevor Bayne spun in Turn 4 for the race's first caution on Lap 96. "We weathered the storm, got everything we could to set up, we're ready to roll", said Dale Earnhardt Jr. (more...)

Mets To Sign Tim Tebow To Minor League Contract
- September 15, 2016
But even that informal setting - which will run until October 8 - won't be devoid of controversy. Tebow, who is 29, has not played any organized baseball at any level since high school in Florida over 11 years ago. Other than Robert Redford in "The Natural", how many actors do you know who can hit a baseball farther than 400 feet? But Jordan did hit.202 with 30 stolen bases for the Double-A Birmingham Barons, and Tebow's swing is infinitely better than Jordan's. (more...)

Facing quick turnaround, Jets will try to prevent 0-2 start
- September 15, 2016
The one incompletion was a trap that Green almost sold as a catch before it was overturned on review. Enunwa was a surprisingly big part of the Jets' offense on Sunday, catching seven balls and leading the team in targets. He finished the afternoon 19/35 for 189 yards, with two touchdowns and one interception. Baldwin, who led a team-wide effort to stand with arms locked during the national anthem, finished the game with nine catches for 92 yards and the game-winning touchdown. (more...)

Murphy strikes out in 10th, Nationals lose 4-3 to Mets
- September 15, 2016
They may have missed an opportunity, however, to move into the top Wild Card spot ahead of the Giants. They finished their head-to-head season series against the Mets at 12-7. The St. Louis Cardinals now lead the Chicago Cubs 4-2, so the Mets are unlikely to pick up more ground at this point. After getting the Nationals right fielder to fly out to left field for the second out, however, Gsellman's day was done. (more...)

- September 15, 2016
Wentz feels he is going to be able to do both when he takes the field on Sunday. The Browns traded out of the No. 2 pick in the 2016 NFL Draft , in part because they didn't think Carson Wentz "was the right fit". However, he wore one, too, in that Tampa Bay game. And the Eagles fans who have been clamoring for the rookie to start all along finally got their wish. (more...)

- September 15, 2016
Del Rio's unconventional call prompted reliable kicker Sebastian Janikowski as he was watching the two point pass connected to Crabtree for the go ahead score with 47 ticks left.

On long-distance passing downs, ravenous Ravens rushers just teed off on Taylor, all day. That it blanketed Buffalos receivers so well might say more about how poor that Bills unit is, rather than how good the Ravens defensive backs are. (more...)
